PRESENTATION TO
MISS WILLIAMSON BY
ST. ANDREW'S CHURCH
Rev. Kenneth MacLean Read the Ad-
dress and Mrs. H. F. McGee
Made Presentation.
Miss. Williamson Left on Tuesday to
Resume Missionary Work in India.
Miss Mae Williamson, daughter of
Mrs. William Williamson, who has
been at home on furlough since last
May, ,following six and a half years
. in missionary work at Amkut, India,
left on Tuesday to continue her lab-
ors among the Bihl tribes in India.
She will sail from Vancouver on the
S. S. Empress of Canada on Septem-
ber 7th. On the same boat will be
Angus Mackay, son of Mr. and Mrs.
Hector Mackay, of East Wawanosh,
who has also been on furlough from
the Indian missionary field at Jhansi.
He will be accompanied by his wife,
whom he married while on furlough.
Miss L. A. Simpson, of Weyburn,
Sask., who is well known in mission-
ary circles here, will also be a pass-
enger on this boat returning to mis-
sionary work in India. They expect to
\ reach Bombay October 19th. Three
missionaries for Japan will sail with
them.
Miss Williamson and Mr. and Mrs.
Mackay will continue their labors in
India for five and a half years before
•
returning home on another furlough,
and the very best wishes of all in this
community go with them in their im-
portant work,
At the close of the morning service
in St. Andrew's. Presbyterian Church,
Rev. Kenneth MacLean, minister of
the church, .expressed the appreciation
of the splendid work being done by
Miss ;Williamson, their own mission-
ary, and read an address on behalf of
the members of the congregation, and
Mrs. H. F. McGee, presented Miss
Williamson with a purse of money
from the congregation.
The address was as follows:
Dear Miss Williamson:.
The members and adherents of St.
Andrew's Church, Wingham, realize
that your well-earnedfurloguh now
draws to a close, and you are already
hearing the call to return to far -away
India.
The year at home has seemed short
and you have filled it full to overflow-
ing with activities on behalf of the
Church and the Kingdom of God.
l(ou have appeared before Missionary
Societies, Congregations, Presbyteries,
Synods, General Assembly, and vari-
ous other organizations, and always
with a message that holds the unfail-
ing attention of your hearers. You
have presented to us the work of our
Church in India in such a variety of
ways, from, so many different points
of view that you have won the inter-
est of the little children and the loy-
alty and support of the adult's to this
WINGHAM ADVANCE --TIMES
great missionary cause.
There can be little doubt but that
the generous support of missions ' by
this congregation has been steadily
maintained throtigh . these dlffleu9t;
years because' we felt that we had a
missidnary 'iii' the field;'
As a congregation we desire to ex-
press to :you anew our confidence in
yourself as an example, to the wo-
men of India,' of Christian woman-
hood. We believe thatas they come
to see you and know you they must
be attracted more and more to the
Christ whom you present to them.
Your example among the missionar-
ies themselves has been good. We are
persuaded• that a larger measure of
goodwill and harmony prevails among
those who formulate the methods and
policies of our Indian Mission because
of your vision of the Kingdom and
of your disposition which tends to
bring divergent views into unanimous
co-operation.
And now we must say to you "Fare-
well". Another five and a half years
of ministry now awaits you, and duty
must be done. They who sit in ,dark-
ness must be given Light. You take
the warmest good wishes of all this
people with you. We ask you to ac-
cept this gift, small in itself, we all
wish it were larger, but may it help
us to express to your our natural
pride and confidence in
ary'. Farwell.
Signed on behalf of
tion,
Kenneth MacLean'.

USE FERTILIZER
IN THE FALL
With winter wheat now coming to
the fore in the immediate plans of
Ontario farmers, considerable valuable
information is found in a recent cir-
cular issued by the Department of
Chemistry of the Ontario Agricultur-
al College. This circular recommends
a sufficient amount of suitable fertil-
izer, to minimize winter killing.
The importance of fertilizer in this
latter respect was shown quite effect-
ively also in a survey of over 30 farms
made Last spring by Empire Fertiliz-
ers Limited, of Toronto. This defin-
itely, showed that fields which were
sheltered and well fertilized came
through almost 100%, while unfertil-
ized wheat was killed 10% to 20%.
According to C. W. Jarvis, president
of Empire Fertilizers Limited, it is a
fact that fertilized wheat almost al-
ways grows vigorously, matures more
rapidly, and not only has a larger
yield per acre but also plumper and
better quality grain.
"Wheat growers generally repor
that properly fertilized wheat is ready
for cutting a week or ten clays before
unfertilized wheat," says Mr. Jarvis
"Also where fertilizer is used you will
invariably find that the entire crop is
ready at the same time, not merely
even patches her.e and there through-
out the field.
"Soule wheat growers imagine that
it is possible for unfertilized wheat
to catch up to fertilized wheat before
cutting. Many tests have shown de-
finitely that this is not the case. Time
after time we have planted the sante
wheat in fertilized ground and also
in unfertilized ground right beside it.
Anybody could see the difference, for
in almost every case the fertilized
heads were much longer and contain-
ed from 40% to 60% and often as
much as 100% more well-filled, high
quality kernels.
The Empire company, which is one
of the leaders in its field in Canada,
has been manufacturing fertilizers un-
der the trade name of "Empire" and
"Canadian" for 30 years. With this
firm fertilizer is not merely a by-pro-
duct, Aince it concerns itself with mak-
ing nothing but fertilizer. All its for-
mulas las have been ptit through c�llati tl'
ive testsbefore being offered thepub'
lic, something which, Jia resulted in
general satisfaction wherever they are
used, •

CUTWORMS it until a good dust mulch is obtain-
ed. The larvae are unable to make
their way up the dusty ,.side of the
furrow. If the worms are very num-
erous, holes could be dug in the bot-
tom of the furrow at short intervals.
The worms will fall into these where
they may be killed. Worms also can
be killed as they enter the furrow by
spreading the poisoned bran bail
along its edge.
Poultry and livestock must be kepi
away from the areas where poisoned
bait is used as they will readily eat
it.
Nature is helping considerably in
the control of this cutworm as many
of the worms are parasited by a fly,
the larvae of which live in the body
of the cutworm and kill it. Where.
crops are being destroyed, however, a
farmer cannot wait for Nature's slow-
er remedy, but should apply poisoned
bait promptly.
An unusual cutworm infestation is
occurring in certain parts of. southern
Ontario. Reports, of damage so far
have come to hand from. near Wal-
laceburg, St. Thomas and Harrow.. In
the Wallaceburg district, says Geo.
M. Stirrett, Dominion Entomological
Laboratory, Chatham, Ontario, the
cutworms are leaving grain and clov-
er fields and migrating into sugar -beet
fields, corn fields or adjacent crops.
In the Harrow district they have
been reported on garden truck. So
far, the most injury has occurred to
sugar -beets. In several fieldsa few
l of the outer rows of beet plants have
been stripped of their leaves and in
some cases even the crown has been
eaten. The larvae feed mostly at night
and remain under clods of earth at
i the base of the plants in the daytime.
On dull days some feeding occurs,
From reports already received, it
is thought that the insect is present
in great numbers in many sections,
There is no cause for alarm, however,
as all that is needed is the prompt ap-
plication of the proper control meas-
ure which is the application of pois-
oned bran bait to the fields where the
cutworms are feeding or to the rows
of sugar -beets or other crops,
Poisoned bran bait is made by mix -
Mg bran 25 lbs., Paris green Ib..
and molasses 1 qt.; to which is added
1 enough water to make the mixture,
Hoist and crumbly, but not wet. It
generally requires about 23 gallons
!of water for each 25 lbs. of bran. All
ingredients should be. thoroughly mix-
ed. The bait is then thinly spread on
the soil along the sugar -beet rows or
broadcast over the fields where the
cutworms are feeding. The bait must
be applied in the evening so that it
will be moist and attractive when the
cutworms are active; They will not
eat dried -out bait. In broadcasting, 25
lbs. of bran will treat from one to
one and a half acres, but when applied.
to rows of plants it will not do nearly
as large ;an area. All that is :needed
is a small quantity of the bait spread
thinly along the plant rows.
If the cutworms are very abundant,
crops such as sugar -beets should be
protected by a dusty furrow, as is Us-
ed in arinyworiln control. Plough a
deep`, ,fttrroyv 4 around the ficld from
which, �h ` f�E° r re migrating;
keeping tit lan site of the furrow

ter the furrow is ploughed, a to
